Julia De Ruiter- Audio Description of Sea View

 

Sea View, Acrylic on Canvas, 36 x 61 inches By Nancy Newton

Nancy Newtons dynamic and expensive acrylic paintings are rich with dialogue and emotion. Through her use of expressive brushwork she eloquently captures the essence of bodies of water, nature, seashells, alongside other environmental elements. 

Accessibility alongside art is a topic that is near to my heart, I believe that everyone should have equal opportunity to appreciate. In order to help bridge the gap between different audiences let me guide you through Sea View by Nancy Newton to help immerse yourself in her work.

Catalina Bravo: Water through Abstract Lenses

  Water through Abstract Lenses Catalino Bravo "Sea Shell Cradle" Acrylic on Canvas, Nancy Newton Nancy Newton's work FROM THE SEA / FROM THE PAST at the Propeller Art Gallery was very inspirational. Nancy talks about how nature and music inspired her to make all her work for her “From the Sea” mixed media pieces. As someone who was always by the water, whether it was the ocean, rivers, lakes, cascades, etc., I felt this viewing really connected me to my roots and my life.  Growing up in Chile, I was always surrounded by nature. This is something I miss so deeply.  I can see, from viewing Nancy’s work, how well she captures the rhythm and energy of the sea in her own terms. I have always thought that different bodies of water give different vibes and energies, which can be transformed and represented in many ways and forms in art. My own family has always been surrounded by art and I grew up being exposed to art. My dad and my grandmother are very artistically inclined....

Exploration of Ocean Trinkets Nancy Newton "Flying Over" 23" x 32"           In the recent exhibition From the Sea/From the Past by artist Nancy Newton, Newton explores with her art and artistic process through the use of seashells and music. Newton approaches her work using metaphorical strategies to represent her completed shell studies. Newton works primarily through complex  drawings and sculpture, pushing the use of negative space. In my interpretive process, I will explore working with seashells, as an artist ,  similarly to how Newton did. However I will  use a more literal approach using a collection of shells I retrieved this past summer on Prince  Edward Island, Canada. My approach will use paints --  acrylic,  oil, and possibly watercolour.  My overall goal, with this work, is to encourage you, the reader, to explore art  exhibitions in a  way that welcomes you to try and incorporate new ideas  f...

Grace Darakjian: Nancy Newton and Representational Abstraction

Nancy Newton and Representational Abstraction  Nancy Newton, Sea-Shell Cradle 30" by 60" Acrylic on Canvas Objectives: Learn about Nancy Newton's art practice Learn about different forms of abstraction Discover new ways of representing subjects from real life  Nancy Newton’s art portrays abstract landscapes in order to express the feeling and mood of the land, rather than creating an exact replica. However, I believe in her doing so, she creates a more “realistic” representation of the land. As shown in the artwork above, "Sea-Shell Cradle", the painting is of a sea shell, but not a sea shell as you would see it in real life. Through her artworks she is able to show the beauty, flow, and essences of the land, to make you feel like you are experiencing what it is like to be in that space. Through this project you will be able to turn a realistic rendition of a natural motif into an abstract representation. You will create 5 artworks of your chosen motif, each bec...
